600 C "Bank Breaker"

[BBG280]

I've decided to build myself a new rig in a Corsair 600C case. This one will be with me for a while. All of the parts haven't arrived yet but I'll list the specs and post pics as I progress. Some parts are from my current build such as my GPU and the watercooling set up. Also the PSU, ssd's and hdd will be reused.

Specs:
Case: Corsair 600 C
Mobo: EVGA X99 FTW
CPU: i7 5930K
RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinums 4x4 GB 3000mhz
GPU: EVGA GTX 970 FTW w/ EK Acetal waterblock with Nickel backplate. From my current build.
SSD's: 2x Samsung 850 EVO's 500GB, 1x Intel 750 NVMe w/EK waterblock
HDD: Western Digital Black 2 TB
PSU: Corsair RM850

Waiting on the waterblock for the Intel 750 and some more sleeving.

Nice healthy spec to be fair fella. As I'm sure a few people will say, the water block on the 750 is pointless ..... But I must admit I would do it too
Look forward to seeing the build

Here's some eycandy

Sorry I bailed on the pics earlier, I had to take my son to get his wisdom teeth out. Nerd p0rn incoming!
EVGA X99 FTW, 5930K, and those ever so sexy Dominator Platinums!

That's a good start. Keep posting your progress as you go.

The UPS guys was kind enough to deliver this bad boy today. Intel 750 400GB

You should really post some benchmark numbers of that bad boy! I envy that drive

Updates

I have more to show! Hope you all like it. Stipped off the stock heatsink on the Intel 750. Unfortunately I didn't get a pic of it by itself with the waterblock installed.

Water cooling

Pics of the loop going in. Two radiators in the system, both Alphacool 30 mm thick. A 240 in front and a 280 in the bottom. Corsair SP120 and 140 fans. Rings painted black.

Filling and leak testing done

Filled the loop and leak tested. I only had one leak at a fitting on the pump. Pulled the fitting and replaced the o-ring and all was fine.

On to cable management

Made all of the wires for this one. It was rough. The sata power cable was the most challenging. Four connections, 3 flat and 1 right angle. There are 3 mounts for 2.5" drives behind the motherboard. I only needed 2 of them. The are 2 3.5" mounts in the top of the case. I used one under my pump/res. Took out the one in the middle to have room for water lines and pci-e cables. Used Telios black and carbon fiber sleeve from Mainframe Customs.
